Chelsea House Hotel

My partner and I had a great stay at The Chelsea House in Key West over the at the end of 2012. Bryan, the host greeted us on our arrival and although we had only spoken on the phone he was friendly, warm and very helpful. When we walked in the front door he seemed genuinely glad to see us and made us feel very welcomed. The guesthouse and ground were well maintained and the pool sparklingly clean. The clothing optional deck was private and comfortable. Our room was beautiful furnished, well maintained and spotless and the king size bed very comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful and the property is lucky to have Bryan on hand to welcome the guest and keep things flowing in a professional but friendly way!!

My fiance and I just got from our trip to Key West during Thanksgiving weekend! We had a fantastic weekend and loved staying at Chelsea House. The staff was very nice and helpful. I called on the way down to let them know we were running late and I spoke to Bryan. He was very sweet and walked me though all the steps for the “late check-in” process. As it turned out we made just before he was about to shut everything down for the night. Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. The room was lovely and very comfortable. The breakfast that was offered by the pool in the morning was great! Plenty of stuff to choose from for a light breakfast to get you going in the morning! Both houses are beautiful and the grounds are very well maintained. Also, private parking which is a big plus to us!! The only complaint I have is that I wish there was more counter space in the bathroom. We made it work, not that big of a deal really.

Thanks so much to the staff at Chelsea House for your hospitality! And, thanks to Bryan for waiting for us to arrive and for all your great suggestions!

This was our second overnight visit to Key West, and our first stay at the Chelsea House. We were pleased to find the Chelsea House, as we invited our son and daughter-in-law to join us during our brief visit. The staff were very friendly and made us feel welcome immediately upon arrival, as well as speaking with Jeremiah on the phone when making our reservations.

Although the Economy Queen rooms are smaller, they are very clean and met our needs for our stay; they do have other larger rooms. The property is centrally located and within easy walking distance of practically all attractions within Key West. THe pool area provided a welcome respite and oasis from the hustle and bustle that can be Key West, especially when a cruise ship or two are in port. The ice tea provided for guests by the pool is a nice touch. Perhaps a few simple sugar cookies could be provided to satisfy that mid-day sugar demand.

Breakfast was satisfying, and could be enhanced by fresh fruit, such as bananas, sliced melon, etc.

There will be no hesitation on our part in recommending to friends that the Chelsea House should be at the top of their list for a place to stay in Key West.

My husband and I and ten of our friends recently stayed at the Chelsea House. The staff was so accommodating, friendly and they went out of their way to make our stay comfortable. The room was cozy, clean and quaint. The house is historic so don’t expect anything lavish but that’s one of the qualities we liked the most about it, it’s character. We had a shared balcony with another couple, which was perfect! The pool and surroundings are beautiful…very tropical and peaceful. The House is conveniently located 2 blocks from Duval and close to the southernmost point. We rented scooters from Scooter Hospital, which is a block away, so we could travel around the island. They have free parking on the premises for one car per room. The breakfast is your typical coffee, OJ, boxed cereals, muffins and bagels (don’t miss breakfast at Blue Heaven!!!!). The price was more than reasonable for the accommodations in comparison to many of the places in Key West. We will definitely stay here again!
